Cam Belt Change
 
I am contemplating the above for the first time and though it best to consider the potential consequences of getting it wrong! The most obvious to me is the possibility of piston/valve contact but being a turbo engine is the compression ratio such that there is clearance and therefore this is not actually a problem whereas it certainly would be on a high compression n/a motor.

Please feel free to point me in the direction of any threads that exist on this matter or how to do the cam belt change itself - I did look before posting honest - but only found one that suggested reference to a manual that I do not have.

Any pointers gratefully received.

They are not that difficult to do,the hardest bit is stopping the cam sprockets on the passenger side from moving when you are putting the belt on!! (and it is best to take off the tensioner and use a bench vise to reset the tensioner pin).
